“…Besides these two linear Raman spectroscopic techniques, inelastic, non-linear scatterings in which the vibrational degrees of freedom in molecular systems are measured using Raman methodologies have been of particular interest. 4 Since the first observation of coherent Raman scattering via the mixing of four electromagnetic waves in 1965, 5 several other non-linear Raman phenomena have been observed and developed as spectroscopic methods. These non-linear Raman spectroscopies, especially those involving the four-wave mixing (FWM) phenomena, have been widely used for numerous applications in condensed and gas-phase studies, and, very recently, in femtochemistry.…”
